I just got 10 zits on my forehead! like just in the past two days! I don't have any on my back or any anywhere else! I've tried popping them and stuff, but it just hurts! like nothing comes out at all! ARGH my boyfriend and I are going out on our first date in like 3 weeks on Wednesday and I don't want to look like a pizza! I have a blackhead scrub but it doesn't work, I have those oil cloths from clean and clear, and I haven't changed shampoos recently though I did get a new bottle if that helps. Cover-up doesn't work, it just doesn't make it not visible. Argh, I'm about to cry! I am 15 and have never had this happen before!

PLEASE HELP ME!

ARGH

Thank you all for your help!

i'm new to this water thing. i just started weight watchers, and of course, water is a big part of the regimen. so i'm drinking a half gallon a day, and i'm in restroom like twice an hour!

my question is, as this becomes a regular thing for me, eventually will my bladder adjust?

My mom went to see her cardioalogist due to having irregular heartbeats and she came back with a medical report with her results from wearing around one of those Holter heart monitors for a day. However, the reports have all these weird medical terms that we can't understand. Her cardioalogists did explain everything to my mom, but her English is not the best so she didn't catch everything the doctor said. So if you help me decipher these wacky terms I'd really appreciate it!

ventricular ectopic activity
supraventricular ectopy
tachycardia
bradycardia
ventricular bigeminy
ventricular trigeminy
ventricular ectopy

Also, I've surfed the web and came up with 3 different possibilities for irregular heartbeats, but they all seem like the same thing. If you happen to have further knowledge in the medical field, could you also include what each thing is? Thanks!

Premature Ventricular Contraction
Premature Artial Contraction
Cardiac Arrhythmia

My 3 year old is going to have a tonsillectomy in a week. I had told my doctor that he was snoring at night and so he looked at him and said his tonsils are large. Since then his snoring has subsided. As for my son he does not talk well yet and is being evaluated for autism. I'm also worried about him becoming dehydrated, and the surgery center says he must go home 1 hour after surgery. Should I just wait it out? This doctor does many of these surgeries a week and I'm thinking he's not really thinking about what is best for my child.

I am a 29 year old male. I am overweight and have been for about the past 15 years. In the past 2 weeks I have lived off junk food pretty much. Fast food, chips, chocolate, you name it. I also have not been drinking very much water. Have I been feeling like this because of my eating habits? It seems that way. I also lack any energy whatsoever and am living off caffeine pills to keep me awake enough to work. I have absolutely no will power and I am going down hill very fast it seems. I know when it comes down to it, I need to just find it in myself to pull it together, but I am just looking for some advice I guess. Thanks

I take care of my neighbor's cats while she's away. She has a 3 year old daughter who wears diapers. I wanted to try on a pair of her plastic pants just to see what they feel like so I took of my pants and put them on. I heard the front door open and close. My neighbor came home early! She came down the hall and there I am standing in her daughter's bedroom with her plastic pants on. She got mad and said "take those off and get out of my house!"
I got dressed and left. I hope she doesn't tell my parents. What if she does?
